Despite having melasma, Upton is glad to have her daughter in her life. “You know what, I love it [melasma]. Its brought me my beautiful baby girl [daughter Genevieve].

Sports Illustrated supermodel Kate Upton’s profession involves using makeup to look good, but she recently emphasised the benefits of being makeup-free.
In an interview to People magazine, Upton, who is married to baseball star Justin Verlander, said: “All of 2020 I was basically makeup-free. And modelling for so long, you always try to be makeup-free in between shoots, because it is the best thing for your skin. I love not wearing makeup. But not having make up for a shoot is always a little nerve-wracking, especially since after pregnancy. I am on a struggle bus with melasma [it’s a condition in which it causes patches on your skin].”
